Is It Possible To Update A Dropdown Value From A Hidden Dropdown's Value Using Conditions

    I have three (3) dropdowns. One is hidden. I want to get the values from the hidden dropdown using conditions. This is the sequence of events;

    Dropdowns one (1) and two (2) are the only visible. If a value from dropdown (1)  is chosen, I want to update the value of dropdown (2) using the value of the hidden dropdown (3).

    Would that be possible?

    Thanks!

    Hello safeskytravel,

    Provided that your dropdown 2 has mating values as your other dropdown, yes that is possible. But if there are no matching values in your dropdown to pick a match, it won't update the dropdown value.

    To be able to do this, you will need to create a conditional logic on your form with the following conditions you have mentioned and with using the Update/Calculate field condition

    Can you tell us how your hidden dropdown is set to have a value? Perhaps you can check and clone this form I've been using for tests using a similar idea on what you have mentioned: https://form.jotform.com/62751601616957

    Feel free to let us know if you have more questions or you need assistance on this matter. 

    Thanks.
